Default Cleaned up my car today :-)

Once again, no sub-zero washes as today was a warm and inviting 45* outside. I washed the car and used my new Craftsman vacuum that I got for Christmas which I LOVE. It has the 5.0hp motor and a 4-gallon tank and a small hose with 5 attachments, great for detailing. Anywho as always, Ill cut the crap and get onto the pictures.

I used:
Craftsman Vac to sweep
303 Aerospace Protectant for dash and leather
303 Concentrated Cleaner diluted 30:1 for wheels and 10:1 for engine bay
CD2 Engine Detailer
Poorboy's Natty Blue
PC 7424 w/ Wolfgang Concourse Finishing Pad










The xmas gift:






All in all, a job well done


Thanks for looking!

Looks nice.. But whats with the water spots in that one picture of the S2000 on the side??

BTW: I happened to detail my car today too... and then that 10% chance of percipitation turned into 100% :frown: So much for it being clean + spot + Streak free

Looks nice Matt. I'm looking forward to trying the CD2 stuff on the CRX next week (this week == rain for us all weekend )

I'm curious - in that first picture, there's a cylindrical black plastic looking thing on the passenger side of the car, near the shock tower. What the heck is that? Mine doesn't have one of those. Different horn?

Looks good, as always. Glad to see I won't be ruined socially riding around with you this week.
